If you can point out in the TOS that we’re incorrect in telling you to stop cheating I swear - we’ll stop.

I really really LOVE ffxiv, but I am truly convinced that half the people in this thread are on some kind of Karen drugs like all this moaning and groaning for using keyboards and cell phones. Like I just can't.

Oh look, the simps are out in force today. cry more.

Listen, mald is never good for anyone. Remember to keep breathing when exerting yourself and drink a smoothie every once in a while. I promise you, you will feel healthier than a yoga mom on her fifth Herbalife shake after a 5k mile charity run.

I only want to play the game as the developers intended, I do not want to cheat with this software, nor do I want to get a ban for using it.

I don't think its fair that some players are making the game easier for themselves using this piece of 3rd party software to make the high end content of this game easier to coordinate in. Its not fair to players who do not have this piece of software, and its not fair to players who do not have microphones.

Please Square Enix, ban the use of this malicious piece of third party software and keep the game fair for everyone. :o

Imagine confusing an external chat software that have been integrated according to multiple companies and devs vs installing/modding and messing up directly with the game folders, injecting and by passing the client so Pedro can brag about having high numbers against the cpu or check the whole market board from every server in one click.

It amazes me how people just don't get the point of this post lol. It's not about using keyboards, or cellphones, it's about SE being cowards and side stepping what's allowed and what isn't. OP is correct in that if we're to take the TOS at face value, then Discord is not allowed. SE needs to step up and state what is allowed, and what isn't, otherwise this will never go away. And if their intent is really to stamp out everything, then they got a lot of work to do themselves to make the game more accessible and less of a headache in a lot of ways.

And seeing as Discord has a function that overlays with the game. I also disagree with your second point - as that does interact with the game in some way, shape or form. So I completely disagree with you. I also think you’re incorrect.

Stop cheating.

If it helps you sleep at night, in reality, you're just as upset as you are illogical in your complaints. Furthermore, and regardless of your own feelings it is strictly against the Terms of Service to advertise or give publicity to third-party tools. Might I suggest you take your own advice and stop advertising the features of an illicit third-party tool? Tsk tsk.

Imagine not being able to understand sarcasm to point out a big issue with SE and FFXIV: Not having a "white list" of third party tools and software that could be legit to use while playing the game.

Simple as that.

Tsk tsk yourself. At the end of the day, you’re downplaying the severity of using them in the first place. Right after Yoshi P had to announce we shouldn’t be using them at all.

But keep using them at your own risk and telling other people it’s okay. Good luck with actively going against the ToS :)

That's ok, I will enjoy my time, as I recommend you do the same.

Cheater. Since I'm capped on daily posts -- No I was just curious how considered you were, apparently not enough, but I will consider my act a service so that a legitimate issue isn't drowned out by trolls.
